Isaiah 40:25 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 40:25

To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal, saith the
Holy One?
] Or be upon a level with? since the greatest of men on earth are brought to nothing by him, and are no more: this is repeated from ( Isaiah 40:18 ) and supported with fresh strength of argument, to show that there is nothing whatever, that is a fit likeness and similitude, by which to represent the Lord.

Isaiah 40:25 In-Context

23 He brings the powerful to nothing; he makes the judges of the earth as if they had never been,

24 As if they had never been planted, as if they had never been sown, as if their stock had never taken root in the earth; even blowing upon them, they wither, and the whirlwind takes them away as stubble.

25 To whom then will ye liken me, or what shall ye compare me to? saith the Holy One.

26 Lift up your eyes on high and behold who has created these things; he brings out his host by number; he calls them all by their names; none shall be lacking by the greatness of his might and by the strength of his power.

27 Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest thou, O Israel, My way is hid from the LORD, and my judgment is passed over from my God?
